Navigating the Storm Together

A Neuroaffirming and Trauma Informed Parenting Program

Parenting a neurodivergent or anxious child can feel overwhelming.

What is CALM GUIDES?

What the program offers
  • Small, connected groups (max 6–8 families) so you’re learning with and from other parents who truly get it.​
  • Facilitated by a Clinical Psychologist who is also neurodivergent and a parent — no judgment, just lived experience and professional expertise.
  • Grounded in evidence-based practices with a focus on practical strategies you can actually use at home.
  • Support to adapt strategies to fit your child and your family, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.​
What You Can Expect
  • 8 x 90 minute online sessions — either in a small group face to face in Sunbury VIC, or online.
  • NDIS parent training funding can be used (plan & self managed)
  • Groups run both daytime and evening to suit different schedules.
  • Step-by-step guidance, space for real conversations, and tools to take into your daily life straight away
